You're on a roll - 456 week contribution streak

I think @ErmesT I interacted with you directly by mistake or that’s the mistake I don’t know, because I came into notice only after I commented on your post. Otherwise, my account might now come into your attention manually.

Now I feel like my account is getting manual attention instead of just being under AI observation.
I don’t think there would be an issue if the AI was taking action as there are many website ranking with thin content as well just based on the backlinks that’s it, but now it seems like my account starting to get affected, maybe because of manual observation.

My recent post also got taken down because of a manual action, even though it was 100% unique. And if that same content was posted on a personal blog or website, it could have even ranked well.

But if you check my content once, you’ll see it’s not copied and 100% unique.
And if you find any then kindly give a list of it I’ll review it and make necessary changes.

From past few months people use AI to help write content, even in SEO with unique content.

I’ve been reviewing local places only to help others, and people are actually liking the posts uploaded.

You can check below a few images for understanding.

Just wanted to clear this up. Hope you understand.


You can check the example, the content is not copied, it’s 100% original, it also shows unique with zero plagiarism.

Well, @ronakmehta , it’s interesting that you mentioned “plagiarism” because I wrote “originality”.
Original is a content created by us, while we cannot consider original a content created by the AI . This applies to your text here in Connect and in your recent reviews, as you already confirmed. This has nothing to do with blogs ot other online contents, it is very specific for Google Maps, where other users rely on our contributions.
Then there are the stolen photos, both in your post, that as you said has (obviously) been removed, and in Google Maps
Every photos published online is copyrighted by default, if not differently declared by the author. Using content created by others is always a violation of the copyright, and in some countries it can be sanctioned in an extreme way, if the author ot the photos report you.
And as Google, being the owner of the platform where the stolen photos are hosted, can be considered co-responsible of the violation, the stolen images will be taken down once detected. Additional action can be taken by Google if they found that this is a repetitive behaviour.

Of course, this is very normal. All the post on Connect are checked by Google, and once they found out a violation the account will be escalated for a check. That’s why I said that you need to fix everything now. Your content is under Google’s lens.
Unfortunately a lot of people don’t understand that the content is not originally created directly by you, and encourage you to write more on that way, but it doesn’t mean that this is the right way to contribute.

After that, what you choose to do it’s only up to you. My duty as a moderator is to inform you, to try to avoid you to be in trouble.
Good luck
